Study Notes
Thermodynamics and Vapor/Liquid Equilibrium
- The goal is to predict the composition of the vapor and liquid phases at equilibrium.
Raoult's Law
- One of the simplest models for vapor/liquid equilibrium behavior.
- xi represents the mole fraction of component 'i' in the liquid phase.
- yi represents the mole fraction of component 'i' in the vapor phase.
Henry's Law
- Describes the behavior of solutes in dilute solutions.
